Summer quickly made a decision. This time, he wouldn't be so particular; he would just find one or two people to cleanse their marrow and increase his own strength as soon as possible to solve his current problems. Although it seemed that he wasn't in immediate danger now and with Ji Qingying's help, he could temporarily not worry about it, but he didn’t want to let others control his fate, especially someone like the demoness Ji Qingying.

However, even if he wanted to casually cleanse someone’s marrow, he couldn’t find anyone right away. Even if he was being casual, he wouldn't just pick a random passerby, would he

Summer thought that it would be better to choose people who were at least somewhat familiar to him, preferably women; of course, the more beautiful the better. Even if they couldn’t become his wife, serving as a maid for his wife would also work—his Immortal Island still needed many maids.

But in this Star City, he basically didn't know anyone, and finding someone familiar seemed quite difficult. After some thought, Summer took out his phone and dialed Ye Mengying's number.

"Honey," Ye Mengying quickly answered the call. "I’m still a little short of the medicinal herbs you asked for, but I’ve managed to purchase them already. They’re on their way here; it should take about an hour until they arrive at my place, and then I’ll deliver them to you."

"Sis Beauty," Summer said hurriedly: "The matter with the medicinal herbs isn't urgent for now. I have something else. My recovery of martial arts power has hit a snag; I need someone’s marrow cleansed, but I don’t want it to be too random. Since I’m not familiar with people in this Star City and there's no suitable candidate here, do you know some people Please find me a suitable woman—I’ll cleanse her marrow so that my martial arts power can recover faster."

"Husband, I do know some people over there, including women who are quite good-looking. However, none of them seem to be single, and they're not exactly beautiful. You probably wouldn't like any of them."

"Sis Beauty, it's fine if you don't like them. Anyway, I didn't want her as my wife in the first place; I just need someone who doesn't disgust me." This time, Xia Tian lowered his standards. There was no other way to protect both his wife and himself.

"Is that so In that case, there is a decent candidate. Hmm, husband, wait for a moment. I'll send the person over today."

Leaf Mengying thought about it briefly before making up her mind. However, she didn't reveal who exactly it was: "I will also bring the medicinal herbs along with the person."

"Alright, Sis Beauty, then I'll wait for them," Xia Tian didn't ask who it was since he believed that if Sis Beauty picked the candidate, there should be no problem.

After hanging up the phone, Xia Tian's mood improved significantly. After all, issues could eventually be resolved, and that demoness Ji Qingying would definitely receive her due punishment from him. However, for some reason, he suddenly thought of Ye Yumei. He wondered how she was doing these days. Perhaps because there was now a woman—Ji Qingying—who made him want to hit her even more, his feelings towards Ye Yumei had unknowingly improved quite a bit; he no longer felt the urge to beat her up.

"Her long legs probably make her figure better than others. It's too bad she always wears clothes and I've never seen how beautiful she is," Xia Tian muttered, then cursed Ji Qingying several times in his heart before yawning and hugging two steamed buns. He quickly fell asleep. When he woke up from his nap, Leaf Mengying should have already sent the person and medicinal herbs over.

He didn't know how long he had been sleeping when a series of doorbell rings startled him awake. After blinking and yawning, he checked his phone to see that it was still early; not even noon yet.

"Sis, you managed to send someone so quickly" Xia Tian was a bit surprised and got dressed quickly. However, when he opened the door, he felt somewhat disappointed; this person that Sis had sent wasn’t what he preferred at all.

"Mr. Xia, has Ding Dayong caused any trouble for you" The woman who appeared at the doorway turned out to be Tang Huijun. Upon seeing Xia Tian, she anxiously asked without entering the room, her face still showing fear. Before Xia Tian could reply, she hurriedly apologized: "Mr. Xia, I’m really sorry; I never thought that bastard Ding Dayong would cause you trouble..."

Xia Tian couldn’t help but interrupt Tang Huijun: "Who is Ding Dayong"

Tang Huijun was momentarily stunned: "Mr. Xia, could it be that Ding Dayong didn't come However, I received a text message from him yesterday, in which he seemed to have mentioned something about this place. My phone was off until this morning when I turned it on and asked around; I heard the police came here for an investigation yesterday…"

"Oh, that matter!" Xia Tian frowned, "Isn’t Ding Dayong a pretty boy Your boyfriend" A fool came here to threaten me yesterday, telling me to stay away from you and saying you live here. I kicked him out."

“He should be Ding Dayong; however, he’s not my boyfriend. By the way, I have his photo on my phone; let me find it….” Tang Huijun took out her phone, found a picture and handed it to Xia Tian while saying: "I originally deleted all of his photos, but every day he sends several pictures to me; this is one that I just received."

Xia Tian glanced at the photo and confirmed it was indeed the foolish troublemaker from yesterday. At this moment, he realized Tang Huijun wasn’t the person Ye Mengying had sent him to cleanse for. His mood improved significantly as he really didn't want to cleanse her; she seemed tainted in a way that even cleansing wouldn’t purify.

"Hmm, he's pretty good-looking. Who is he" A pleasant voice spoke up; it turned out that Liao Meng had also gotten dressed and woken up at some point. She snatched the phone to take a look, then asked curiously.

”Miss Meng, where exactly is he handsome” Xia Tian sounded a bit unhappy, "He's clearly not as good-looking as me!"

”Little rascal, I'm telling you, I find him more attractive than you. But don't be jealous! Even though you're not the most handsome guy around, I only have eyes for you!” Liao Meng giggled and then rubbed her stomach, "Ahhh, I'm so hungry. Little rascal, let's go wash my face before we head downstairs to eat!"

Liao Meng dashed to the bathroom, returning in less than two minutes. She then grabbed Xia Tian’s hand and started dragging him away while shouting at Tang Huijun: "Hey, come along too! By the way, tell me who this handsome guy is. Once I’m done eating, I’ll give him a beating!"

”Miss Meng, why do you want to beat him up” Xia Tian asked with some confusion.

”Didn’t you hit him yesterday” Liao Meng retorted.

”Yes,” Xia Tian nodded.

"Since you've already beaten him up, he must have deserved it. Of course, I also need to beat him up," Liu Meng said confidently.

Summer immediately agreed: "That's right! He definitely deserves a beating!"

Tang Huijun was at a loss for words upon hearing this. These two ladies really do have strong logic!

The trio quickly made their way downstairs and arrived at the Xiang cuisine restaurant near the entrance once again. The bamboo tube rice here had already become Liu Meng's favorite dish, which Summer enjoyed as well.

Today, they came earlier than usual, so there was more bamboo tube rice available. As a result, both Summer and Liu Meng ate even more. Naturally, their dining experience wasn't just about eating; while Liu Meng was eating, she asked Tang Huijun to introduce her to Ding Deyong.

According to Tang Huijun's account, Ding Deyong truly wasn't her boyfriend. Furthermore, Ding Deyong wasn't a big figure at all but merely a small-time thug. To Tang Huijun, he was just a rogue—a despicable and shameless one.

Tang Huijun met Ding Deyong in a bar. Despite being Ye Mengying's subordinate, Tang Huijun wasn't nearly as pretty as Ye Mengying nor did she maintain the same level of self-respect. In fact, her private life was rather casual; she didn’t have a steady boyfriend and had normal physical needs for a woman at her age. Whenever she felt such urges, she usually went to nightclubs to satisfy them.

However, Ding Dayong and Tang Huijun are actually similar types of people. He goes to bars looking for prey like Tang Huijun. Ding Dayong is quite good-looking, as is Tang Huijun. Her figure is also decent, so it's no surprise that the two hit it off at the bar and checked into a hotel room on the same night.

Usually, such one-night stands are limited to just one night; they part ways in the morning, each returning to their own lives without further interaction. Unfortunately for Tang Huijun, Ding Dayong's intentions when seeking prey differ from hers. While she seeks merely to satisfy her physical desires, Ding Dayong aims to address future material needs as well.

After parting ways with Tang Huijun, Ding Dayong began investigating her background, which is his usual approach after hooking up with someone. He covertly probes into their identity; if there's no potential for gain, he leaves it at that, but if the person has some influence or wealth, he plans to escalate things further.

Upon discovering that Tang Huijun heads a mid-sized company and qualifies as a wealthy woman, Ding Dayong began his actions. He appears in front of her almost daily, claiming himself as her boyfriend, harassing her with all sorts of unwanted attention. Any man who has a closer relationship with Tang Huijun also falls victim to Ding Dayong's harassment. Despite her best efforts, Tang Huijun cannot escape him. In this day and age, the most difficult people to deal with are often these kind of bullies; reporting them to the police is ineffective since Ding Dayong hasn't committed any actual crimes that would warrant police intervention.

"This is self-inflicted trouble!" Xia Tian muttered upon hearing the whole story before continuing to eat his bamboo tube rice.

“Oh, can that Ding Dayong get his hands on ecstasy” Liu Meng tilted her head and looked at Xia Tian. “Little rascal, do you think it could be him who put the ecstasy in our room If it is him, he definitely has a key to our room!”

Tang Huijun hesitated slightly before saying quietly: "He might have secretly copied my key because there was once when he appeared at my home out of nowhere. He said I didn't lock the door properly, but I always check that it's locked whenever I leave."g, you're just like me; you've never experienced being drunk either," Xia Tian casually remarked. Of course, he and Mu Han were different—Mu Han was afraid of getting drunk, whereas no matter how much...
